Consider the motion of a body AB from A1B1 to A2B2. This plane motion
can be considered as pure rotation of a body AB about the point I, the
instantanneous centre of rotation,which is the point of intersection of
perpendicular bisectors of A1A2 and B1B2.
Also,
AB = A1B1 = A2B2
(i) Magnitude of velocity of any point on the body is proportional to its distance
from the instantaneous centre and is equal to angular velocity times distance.
(ii) The direction of velocity of any point on the body is perpendicular to the line
